About Bane's World

Bane’s World is a group coming out of Long Beach, CA, lead by singer/songwriter and guitarist Shane Blanchard, who writes, records and produces the music, with other members; Michael Seyer, Vincent Reyes, Eric Baisa, and [Antonio Aiello] (http://www.alfredthealien.com/), helping out behind the scenes, and performing live shows. Bane’s World can be described as synth infested Alternative/Indie Pop, with a somewhat 60’s/70’s rock vibe, and 80’s/90’s aesthetic, or in a more summarised title, Dream Pop.

Bane was a nickname my friends gave me in high school; they just swapped the letters of my first and last name. My friend Max, was like “Banes Slanchard, sound like you were trying to say your name drunk. I don’t know where Banes World, came from—I don’t even like the movie, Wayne’s World. So, when it came down to finding a name to put my demos under, I didn’t want to try too hard to sound cool and ended up sticking with Banes World.
